Cyber Crime Cell of Ahmedabad Crime Branch has come up with a mobile phone application called HIE, which facilitates a quick contact with friend/relative during emergency.
"Help In Emergency is an application developed to help citizens in emergency, especially the women during night," Crime Branch sub-inspector T R Bhatt said.
Developed by Yash Rajpurohit, a cyber crime consultant with the Detection of Crime Branch (DCB), the application is supported by Android 2.0.
"The message on the recipient's cellphone helps police in tracing the place of the incident. Police can reach the spot as quickly as possible," he said.
